Abstract :
Lead telluride films have been grown on cleaved BaF2 substrates by MBE method. Growth process was monitored by RHEED system and the crystal structure of the obtained films was investigated by θ-2θ and grazing angle X-ray tests. Optimal technological regimes are found and a phenomenological theoretical model of the MBE growth process is proposed
